Tate House, Colonial house museum in Stroudwater, Portland, United States.
The Tate House features an indented gambrel roof design with clerestory windows and unpainted clapboard exterior walls spanning five bays in width.
Built in 1755 for George Tate, a Royal Navy captain who managed the selection and shipment of pine trees for British naval masts in colonial Maine.
The Georgian interior displays carved wooden panels imported from England, reflecting the colonial architectural preferences of eighteenth-century New England merchants.
The museum offers guided tours from June to September, with private visits available through advance reservations during the off-season months.
Archaeological excavations in 2014 revealed artifacts from the 1750s to 1780s, including salt-glazed stoneware, creamware, and pearlware pieces.
